Overall the tour was great. Our Guide was well versed and pleasant and kept us up to date about what we were going to do and how much time we had to do it. The coach was comfortable. The number of stops the distances involve and keeping to a tight schedule can be challenging for those who are not accustom to this type of regime, so if one thing I would like to recommend is that an advisory be made very clear that STRICT TIME TABLE is the rule rather than the exception.

All in all it was a good trip. The train ride was comfortable and effecient. The "hop on hop off" tour bus in Paris was wonderful allow us to see lots of places that we hadnt seen on our last trip.The only concern I had was there was not a central rallying place to meet the tour guide at the beginning in England(ie at the train station)and due to the time constraints and city traffic in Paris what to do if for one reason of another you missed the tour guide (bus transportation) and how to get back to the train station for in Paris for the return trip to the UK.

By far the best value for those who want to try and see as much as they can in limited time. My only suggestion is that before your leave on your trip have a plan in what you want to do each day and somewhat of a "back-up" plan. Start out early and be prepared for packed "tube" cars. Trying to navigate the "underground" is not for the novice so dont be afraid to ask questions of the staff on the most part they were friendly and patient. Not all attractions need to be seen so do your homework before you go. a lot of venues are free and other's are not included in your LP.
